Geo. VIM. Paisley, inspector of gen.
eral and district land Offices, was in town
the fore part of the week. He came, as
we get it, to investigate the Beard case
with reference to the charges which were
made against that officer by a number of
our people few months ago. We are
told that Inspector Paisley, after stop
ping at The Cleveland, Mr.. Boards hotel,
for about two days, called to see Attorney
Danford respecting the charges against
Register Beard. It did not require long
for Mr.. Danford to tell him that he did
not feel disposed to try for q chance in a
case where the job evidently had been
put up against his side. Thus ended the
Investigation" we presume.

Suspended Only Temporarily.

Suspended Only Temporarily.
The Western Farm Mortgage Company,
of Lawrence, Kansas, has unfortunately
been compelled to suspend business tenn
porarily in this land district and else
where. This condition of affairs will
work temporary hardship to about
thirty of the patrons of Mr.. Geo. G. Ward,
the district manager of the company at
this place, but the patrons of the COM
pany are ready to testify that they have
been dealt with honorably. This state of
affairs has been brought about by series
of suits brought by J. B. Watkins, of
Lawrence, Kansas, against the National
Bank of Lawrence, of which institution
he (Watkins) is heavy stakeholder. In
Watkins's petition, he charges the Ma
tional Bank with unlawful using of their
funds to bolster up the Western Farm
Mortgage Company, and makes many
scandalous charges affecting the business
standing of said company. These charges
the company expects to prove malicious
and utterly false. In fact, some of these
have already been proved to be utterly
without foundation. One of Watkins's
charges is that the Western Farm Mort
gage Company has been unable to fur
nish the mortgage papers which they cor
tilted to be on file in their office, and
which furnish the security for debenture
bonds guaranteed by the American Loan
and Trust Company of New York. This
statement, Mr.. Snow, secretary OF the
American Loan and Trust Company, de-
clared to be unqualifedly false. In addi-
ton to the charges contained in the said
petition, Watkins has flooded the United
States with pamphlets, assailing the finan'
cial standing and integrity of the Western
Farm Mortgage Company.
No financial institution, however solid,
could be expected to withstand, without
out at least temporary shock, such an
onslaught as this in times of financial de-
preston like the present.
